We recently unveiled the Street View trike at Taronga Zoo in Sydney - soon you'll be able to take a tour of the zoo from your own lounge room. But where to go next in a country that offers so many beautiful locations off the beaten track? We knew there was no one better to ask than those who know our country best - you guys. We called on Australians to share with us their most inspired suggestions on what the trike should photograph for the rest of the world to see on Google Maps, and we've been overwhelmed by the response. More than 3,000 destinations across the country were nominated in the categories of City Life, Cultural Areas, Natural Wonders and Hidden Gems.

Last week, thousands of Aussies voted on which of their favourite off-road attractions they want the Google Street View Trike to capture for a special Street View imagery collection on Google Maps.

Thank you to everyone who submitted ideas and voted in the Street View Special Collections Poll. From natural wonders like Hamilton Island to the Melbourne CBD Laneways, we feel proud to show-off to the world some of our most beautiful destinations that reflect our culture.

The trike will now embark on its national tour with a team of specially-selected Google riders, who have been in training to get their quads of steel in tip-top shape. We hope to add as many of these locations to Google Maps as we can over the next year.
